Dutch Colony. United East India Company gold Duit 1763 MS61 NGC, Dordrecht mint, KM70b, Fr-7b. 1.66gm. Holland issue. An extraordinary rarity within a series that, when found, usually exhibits exacting technical perfection, but in this case the strike is off-center, leaving one to wonder what happened in this final year of issue. Nevertheless, the backdrop of reflective golden fields resembles what we have seen on other dates, leaving no doubt about the concern for quality that we have come to associate with this scarce off-metal emission. This is for the collector seeking to add something special that would propel their collection to world-class status. HID09801242017 © 2024 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
